Over the last 17 years, DharmaShop founder Sander Cohen has been collecting Dzi beads in all price ranges. In the past 5 years, prices of dzi beads have gone sky high and many original ancient beads are selling for $100,000 to $2,000,000. True agate modern beads made in the past 25 years are still affordable and we continue to search for and collect these stunning beads.
